Disordered Pharmaceutical Materials

A one-stop resource for researchers and developers, this handbook and ready reference provides detailed, but not overloaded information — presenting the topic without unnecessarily complex formalism.
As such, it gives a systematic and coherent overview of disordered materials for pharmaceutical applications, covering fundamental aspects, preparation and characterization techniques as well as molecular modeling approaches for the target-oriented development of drug delivery systems based on amorphous solids. Chapters on the challenges of using these materials in large-scale processes in the pharmaceutical industry and on patenting issues round off the book.
For pharmaceutical and medicinal chemists, materials scientists, clinical physicists, and pharmaceutical laboratories looking to make better and more potent pharmaceuticals.
